Peter Singer in his article “Famine, Affluence and Morality” gives a seemingly devastating critic on our ordinary way of thinking about famine, relief, charity, and morality in general. Despite his arguments, only a few people have accepted, or rather responded on the conclusions he derives. In line with these facts one might say of Singer’s arguments, as Hume claimed of Berkeley’s arguments on immaterialism, the “they admit of no answer and produce no conviction” (Hume, 1999). While my view on considerations presented by Singer shows that people should actually do more than other people do, they do ...

In regards to relativism and subjectivism we can establish that holding a moral belief is a subjective opinion, but using the divine command theory can lead us to the conclusion that morality has the possibility of objectivity. Opinions could be based on personal culture/folklore, family history, or media portrayal. Unless one can strip away all of these subjective opinion inducing factors, an individual’s specific morality cannot be objective and most likely won’t be relevant to a large amount of ethical situations. This bias obviously limits objectivity, since opinions are decided by a person’s background and social peers instead of morality. ...

Archeologists contend that the bible is such a complex book that it could not have been written during the primitive times described in Genesis and other early stories.
